Everyone was "ducking" Gennady, but he passed on fights with Cotto and Canelo due to CWs...IN the MW division.
Gennady passed on Cotto, Canelo, Dervenchenko, Andrade, Mora, and Lara even though some of those guys eventually agreed to fighting at 160. Yet Gennady required Ward - 1 division higher - to meet at a CW. In other words...everyone must bend to GGGs will to fight him - if they dont then they are ducking.
Lil g cried about Canelos gloves
Lil g cried about Canelos handwraps
Lil g cried about Danny Jacob's weight (made 160 at the weigh in)
Lil g cried about Canelos PPV split
Lil g cried about Canelos **** size

Anyway Golovkin and Canelo fought at middleweight. Canelo got what GB wanted which was getting Golovkin when he was older and Golovkin got his preferred weight. It turned out to be two great fights.[/QUOTE]
Golovkin chose that. He refused to acknowledge A side B side principles in boxing.
Manny had them
Floyd had them
Cotto had them
Canelo has them
DLH had them
Klitschko had them
This is how boxing works and Gennady/Abel are too simple to understand. And apparently you are too since you blame everyone else for GGGs actions:
- 5 champion opponents (past, present, future) in 40 pro fights...and 1 if those "champs" was a WELTERWEIGHT
- refusal to fight Cotto, Canelo, Lara, Dervenchenko, Andrade, and More at anything less than MW limit
- refusal to fight Ward at SMW limit (after calling him out there)
- Crying about drugs, gloves, handwraps, fight night weights
Absolute prima donna. Good riddance Borat and hopefully his fans (you)
